We're Getting Married!

Anthony & Jamillah met during their childhood on Lafayette Street & Rebecca Place in Elizabeth, NJ. They were childhood friends, they played flagged football and childhood games. As most people do, they went their separate ways and moved away. In 2013 they rekindled their friendships and became friends on Facebook. In June 2017 Anthony asked Jamillah went out on a date and on June 11, 2017, they became official and inseparable from each other.

Jamillah and Anthony went on vacation to Ocean City, Maryland for their 5-year dating anniversary weekend. They needed a getaway to relax and enjoy some time on the beach after the COVID lockdown. They went to dinner and played miniature golf and back to their hotel room and enjoyed their view of the bay on the balcony. Anthony asked Jamillah to come inside to exchange our Anniversary gifts. Anthony gave Jamillah a card that said Happy Anniversary to my wife and Jamillah said "why are you giving me a card that says Wife, I'm not your wife yet". And Anthony said "do you see the gift in your card" and Jamillah starts shaking the envelope and the card. Anthony then says "wait a minute it must have fallen out in the drawer, and reached into the dresser drawer and pulled out the ring box and got on one knee and said "I don't wanna go on the rest of my life without you. Being with you these the last couple of years has changed me to be a better person. I am deeply in love with you and I want you to be my wife, Will you Marry Me? Jamillah began to cry and said I am deeply in love with you too and Yes I will Marry you. We are so excited to start our journey as husband and wife. We'll see you all in Hazlet, NJ.
